Technical Product Manager

As Technical Product Manager, you keep the stream focused on outcomes that matter for customers, partners and the business. You take charge of product and technology direction within the stream, and you make sure that what we build is actually used and actually creates value.

You will be the regular technical contact for customers and partners, the person who carries their reality into the stream and carries the stream's direction back out.

This is a bridge role that holds real weight. You'll work shoulder to shoulder with our Product Managers to align product vision, value, and technology in the stream backlog, and you'll be a full member of the stream. Here, leadership means clarity: every initiative has a clear, measurable and traceable outcome. The team's autonomy is built on the confidence that they are doing the right thing under the supervision of the Technical Product Manager.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

Shape the direction

• Set product and technology direction for the stream, giving every initiative a clear target outcome.
• Explore new technical possibilities, including through agentic research, and bring concrete options to the team.
• Frame hard technical questions, explore options and steer the team toward sound decisions.
• Co-own the stream backlog with the PMs. Keep it shaped, prioritized and connected to outcomes, with the customer and partner view always present.

Build and run it

• Shape features and write technical specifications, using AI-assisted techniques to turn problems into clear, buildable plans.
• Implement features end to end across the relevant layer of the stack, following Magnolia's development policies and quality standards.
• Live the "you build it, you run it, you take charge" mindset as a regular member of the stream.
• Run our product solutions together with the platform, cloud and support teams.

Be the voice of the customer

• Act as the technical contact for customers and partners. Understand their context and turn it into product direction.
• Handle 3rd level support topics and communication, sometimes working directly with customers.
• Take part in PD on-call duties in an advisory role, with a focus on on-premise installations.

Drive adoption and impact

• Track whether features are used and create value, and act when they don't.
• Enable go-to-market so features reach customers and partners well, including internal enablement and training.
• Work across streams and departments, such as support, training, customer success, professional services and cloud, to keep direction and delivery connected.
• Collaborate proactively and constructively with your team, your department and the wider company.

Must-Have Qualifications

• Clear communication skills and the ability to work well with colleagues and with internal and external stakeholders.
• Ability to enable and train technical people on your own topics.
• Solid technical system design and solution thinking.
• Experience in technical shaping and specification of product solutions using agentic flows.

• A strong quality mindset, with experience in unit, integration, performance and platform testing.
• Leadership skills without formal authority, guiding through influence and clarity.
• Full accountability for your own work and solutions.
• Competencies in secure development, threat modelling, vulnerability handling, data protection and related standards (e.g. ISO 27001, SOC 2).
